Clinical Trial Summary

Although the orofacial pain is not typical symptom of multiple sclerosis, more than 50% of the patients experience some kind of pain. Acute pain usually in form of trigeminal neuralgia, that occurred in 2-3% of patients with multiple sclerosis. Chronic pain occurred in 40-50% of patients and most common forms are headache. Aim of this study is to investigate prevalence and evaluate the form of orofacial pain in patients with multiple sclerosis treated in General hospital Varaždin in period from 01.01. 2017. to 31.12.2022. Results of this investigation will determine better understanding orofacial pain , treatment and impact on everyday life.


Clinical Trial Description

Multiple sclerosis is a chronic autoimmune disease with an unknown mechanism of origin. Although pain is not a typical symptom of multiple sclerosis, it occurs in more than 50% of patients and has significant impact on the quality of life of patients. Pain syndromes that patients with multiple sclerosis initially have characteristics of somatic and nociceptive pain, and later neuropathic, including trigeminal neuralgia, headaches, Lhermitte's syndrome. Pain is also often associated with anxiety and depression, which occurs in almost one third of patients. Pain therapy in these patients is a challenge for many doctors involved in the treatment. Many patients do not have adequate pain therapy due to the disproportion between the fear of interaction with other drugs and side effects, and on the other hand the treatment of basic diseases with the aim of controlling the immune response. ;
